Swiped Horizon

Not only time and consciousness, but also place perception is shifting tremendously by the use of screens. Nowadays screens become (virtual) landscapes, carried in the hand. Our fingerprints are creating new landscapes. Nuyten photographed these picturesque traces together with brother and filmmaker Thomas Nuijten. The colorful sceneries are exuding the ambiance of the places where they were created - on the seashore of the North Sea and the Aegean Sea. Swiped Horizon makes the intangible tangible and lets us rethink how digitalization changes our way of looking at the world.
